- Broward Circuit Judge Elizabeth Scherer formally sentences the convicted Parkland killer to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
I applaud the judge in this case. She was very fair and unbiased, and she had to make sure there was no chance of a mistrial. She did what she knew she had to do to prevent this from happening.
She did an awesome job. It was a very high profile case and under all the spotlights and pressure she rocked it.
Death would have been Fair, not Letting him live on the taxpayers dime for the rest of his life. He deserves the same fate he gave his victims. DEATH! But he looks like a little white kid with mental health issues so he gets to keep living his victims do NOT. Tell that to the parents of the victims that this judge did an awesome job.
I applaud you for applauding her.
I have not been following this case nor am I familiar with Florida law does Florida law have a death penalty? And the shooter I believe was a minor does Florida law permit the execution of minors? I'm just asking because I'm curious how it could have gone
@@JJ-us5kr I applaud you for applauding @Tassle101
Every child and adult murdered , injured will never be forgotten ♥️ Thank you Madame Judge , for your professionalism, and the lawyers for these family ♥️
Yes time will take all of us so.. it will be forgotten:) 😂

It looked like his soul crushed when the judge garnished his commissary. Good on her. Now it means he won’t get any of the luxuries or goods that prisoners sometimes receive. He’ll be completely miserable in there for the rest of his existence.
There is always a way round. His family can send money to another prisoners and they can get products for him.
@@claudem7991 no one will be buddies with cruz, other prisoners hate him
I wish they could take away his mail too
@@Jenni-Martikainen exactly... hell be in PC...but even IN PROTECTIVE CUSTODY. There will be a FATHER in there who empathizes with the victims family and enforces JUSTICE.
This dude will live miserably in there
I agree except that this thing has no soul. But it getting crushed sounds amazing. Slowly, painfully preferably
Those poor families. Seeing Max Schaetner cry when the judge said his sons name broke my heart 😢
I know. It is so very sad.
Same 😢 such a good guy
Yes, to hear him speak you understand what an intelligent and resilient person he is.
There is no immunity against true grief.
Have you thought about the possibility that it’s actually self-entitlement and humans not being fully aware of the reality of the world. I understand his father must deeply love him but world sense of justice you are implying here doesn’t exist at all. Humans tend to think that sufferers deserve their suffering in order deluded ourselves/believe that the world is just.
How is it that some people commit premeditated murder and get the death penalty for killing only one person. But after this entire trial, he gets life in prison but he killed 17 people in the first degree. And injured 17 more.
That’s just crazy. SMH.
Way to go judge! Attaching his commissary account for the imposed financial responsibilities! I’ve never heard this before but so hitting where it may hurt! And the son of Sam law as well..brilliant!!
Just awesomeness for that POS
What does it mean? I'm not from the USA and we have different laws. Thank you.
@@Melbeatle A prison commissary[1] or canteen[2] is a store within a correctional facility, from which inmates may purchase products such as hygiene items, snacks, writing instruments, etc. Typically inmates are not allowed to possess cash;[3] instead, they make purchases through an account with funds from money contributed by friends, family members, etc., or earned as wages. Typically, prisons set a maximum limit of funds that can be spent by each inmate on commissary.
@@Melbeatle Any money that Cruz receives to buy from the Prison store such as food or any other personal items (commissary) will have to go towards all the fees that were accumulated during the trial. The fees being court cost, restitution (money paid out to the victims families) etc. so basically he’ll have to live off of what the jail provides for free. The Son of Sam law means that he won’t be able to collect or make any money off of movies, documentaries, etc that portray him in covering this story.
Yes, that was a brilliant move on the judge's part, in re: the commissary! She looked just as pissed, as all of the families, that he didn't get the death penalty. But I do believe that he will get a slow, painful death, like many of his victims.
He will be in shock when he is all alone in the state prison with none of those defense attorneys fawning over him. He will no longer be the center of attention
Oh but he will, wait until he drops that soap.
@@sonianolazco9962 this kid won't get to see a normal cell. He's a high profile criminal probably in solitary confinement for most of the rest of his life
and the Judge took away his commissary! He can’t even buy a little protection. 😂
0h, he shall, indeed, be the center of attention - just not in the manner that he is apparently seeking...
17 hearts for seventeen beautiful souls. Rest in peace
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
IM 76YEARS old and im happy to say i never held a gun in my hand in my life, I might make an exceepion if this excuse of a human was a standing a few feet from me. The pain he has caused to these good people is unreal.
You're absolutely right with what you said.
I'm 79 never touched one my entire life. Regards🇿🇦
Frank, I'm sure I speak for many people when I say, I'd love to hand you that gun. The scumbag shouldn't be killed though, just turned into swiss cheese with a pulse and no pain relief
Are you american?
@@johnshepard8556 Irish John
I know the names and stories of each and every victim and their families.I will never forget them and I will light a candle and have a moment of silence for them every Valentine’s Day. May those babies rest in paradise and may we all be reunited in the world to come.
Better not forget you made a weird RUclips promise to make this about you.
@@user-dq2ly5ut9j My thinking exactly. Instead of focusing on the victims, the majority of what she said was focused on her. Another POS hopping on the “death wagon” (band wagon of grief used to make the victim’s suffering about someone completely unrelated to the situation or victim) for attention. It truly never ends.
What's with the I I I! Want to remember them then go help the families with their foundations.
Geez these replies. Whats wrong about a person showing empathy and respect in their own way? Y'all f*cking whack.
Cap
He should’ve been made to stand up like most convicted criminals when hearing their sentencing 😡😡😡😡
While cuffed
Shut your pie hole, you old bag.
I will never forget this trial and the grief it has caused these families. May this never happen again. My heart is broken for the families..know that the world is holding them close.
It will happen again. These shooters face no consequences
Nah, it will happen again. Consequences or not, because that's how the world works. I mean, look at Uvalde.
Sadly this is a common occurrence now. Until we start holding parents accountable for how these monsters end up.
Why did this take so long so many years to get justice
Then stand up and make sure that Gun Control is STRICTER and that people like Cruz and hate groups don't have access to guns. That you can do for the memories of these precious children.
You can hear in the judge voice that it pains her to say life in prison for all the victims of this monster crimes this judge has Ben amazing this whole trial and took no bs plz don’t blame this judge at all because she is one of the best out there❤
Rhianna, I totally agree with you. I think she was amazing throughout the trial and I'm very sure she's glad it's over. Everyone in the courtroom, except the defense team, must be mentally and physically exhausted. They should be feeling nothing but shame! As for Cruz he should be scared to death because he's fixing to learn what he'll on earth is, and I doubt he lasts very long in prison
This judge is one of the reasons they lost the case. The defense walked all over her
@@icepick859 they tried and lost the case. She gave latitude because they were always pushing for mistrial. She wanted fo make sure he payed for what he did.
@@icepick859 the jury voted for no death penalty the judge cant impose death penalty on their own in a jury trial. Do some research.
Much better life in prison than a quick pinch then sleep
The jurors who voted against the death penalty should be ashamed of themselves!
Death Sentence would have been a Release for him, Trust me once you've been in Jail you understand it is a hell all of it's own.
Being in the hands of angry inmates for life might be the worst.
If it were you having to make the decision to end someone's life, without it being personal ( meaning you've lost one of your own) you woul probably feel differently. I get it anyway
@@koffinkat666 but why does the death penalty exist if not for crimes like this?
@@stephenkyburz6529 inmates don't like child murderers and child abusers. They'll get him. I hope.
He's gonna be doing some favours to even get a pack of noodles. Way to go Judge! Can only hope he gets it like Dahmer did maybe worse. Absolutely disgusting that the lawyer next to him was falling asleep.
Wow, you’re right! Didn’t even notice the lawyer falling asleep. I’m appalled. Everyone on his defense team was completely and utterly disgusting throughout this entire trial, right until the very end. They should all be disbarred. The disrespect they showed the victims’ families was completely abhorrent.
I don't think he was talking asleep tbh... I just think they feel the pressure of this whole process and it's not a pleasant situation to be in imo
Hope he goes out like Dahmer.
He was not falling asleep he just feels bad for cruz
@@midgekirkpatrick3300 or he was reacting that way because he knows how much cruz will suffer in prison without his commissary
Whew. Life in prison with ZERO funds, commissary or otherwise. You can’t even buy a Twinkie ever again.
I think he wasn’t getting his money until he paid all his dues other then that eventually he’ll find a way to get or make money
@@puffinboo3919 he also has to pay restitution to the families but she hasn’t determined the amount. 16 families, let’s just say on the low-end, they get 100,000 each. That’s $1,600,000 AFTER court fees being garnished.
Why should we pay taxes and he gets it?
@@bebebe7666 huh?
@@S0o0oSmiiley actually you’re right but I don’t think they’ll get that much. Unfortunately.
The behaviour of the defence team was beyond abhorrent.
The vile behaviour of that vile lawyer giving the finger she should be disbarred .
I can't imagine for the life of me how they don't feel shame.
My deepest sympathy to all the families, I do not know you but my heart breaks for you💔.
I hope you find peace.
To those injured I hope you heal in all way you need.💜💙
No excuse for their behavior
maybe they did it on purpose to lose the case and have Cruz have a guaranteed life sentence
Life in prison, no commissary is still an extremely harsh sentence. He can't even have a pen and paper, let alone a TV and comfortable clothing. Just state issued food and uniform. For life. The judge knew what she was doing.
It's other people's taxes that pay for this "man" to eat and have clothing. He doesn't deserve to live, murdering 17 people.
No commissary, Nothing to trade to be protected, This kid will be trafficked in prison for the next 40 years, Gunna be ten times worse then the Lethal Injection
Harsh. They should drag him behind a pick up truck
I hope he appeals the case because the state of Florida shouldn't be taking all his money that money should be going to his brother F### Nikolas Cruz I think the moneys he has should go straight to his brother Nikolas is a idiot putting all that moneys in his commissary account he should've known better that kid ain't all there
He also knew what he was doing. At least he has his life.
When the father and mother of a victim put there heads together it broke my heart ❤️
That's when I started crying harder
The judge did her best to follow her rigid boxes as well as show the families that she is doing all she can.
Watching all of this has been mind boggling, first time I'm shocked to not hear death penalty.
Crazy... the only thought left now is for a death penalty inside prison.
Look at his attorney falling asleep as the Judge is reading her sentences. Disgusting……
Yeah the bearded guy was bored and not impressed with this guess he was ready for bed .Credit for day's served like that going to matter he is the prisoner's play toys
Disbar those creeps,justice!!!!
You have to understand its his job to defend the client and he already knows his client is in no way getting out of jail it must have been the most boring and stressful case for him as a lawyer. He just wants his pay cheque and onto the next client. The case dragged on forever.
@@capela8669 f them to hellwith lil Nikki
I don’t think he is falling asleep. Earlier he was shaking his head. Maybe it is an emotional reaction?
You can tell that poor judge is just trying not to cry. She's got to be mad that she can't give him the death penalty.
One person on that jury saved him,that's how close he was to getting the death sentence,I hope sometime in the near future he will fall upon his knees and seek God and ask for forgiveness,for what he did was so evil in taking of those lifes,a life is so precious and can be taken away in a heart beat,a life can be taken away but can't be brought back,so may God be with all those families who went through all this tragedy
She's a professional. She knows it's not up to her and it was up to a jury to do what they did so she has to do what the law requires her to do. Being mad or sad it doesn't have a damn thing to do with that that's only for civilians.
She doesn't care lol
My heart goes out to the family's
Hey sexy, I want more than your heart!
@@karl7361 - spoken like a true Troll. 🤪
My God! My heart goes out to these families of the lost of their children and the injuries of all of the victims. They all will never be the same my prayers are with them! 🙏🏾
My god you can hear it in the judges voice, she wanted the death penalty so bad too. Even though the families didn’t get what they want, at least we know he will be miserable everyday AND no commissary. He’ll be miserable for the rest of his life.
Good.
he had every chance to change that misery he went through before but now it's too late
The judge sounds like she’s gonna cry
The judge sounds like ,she wants to beat the monster to death herself very strong woman
Because she is a mother
Very strange how this guy didn’t get the death penalty, how many people would someone have to murder to get the death penalty? This guy murdered 17 people
Death is too good for this white devil
My love and prayers for all of the families having to endure this. 💔
As the families were talking even with judge reading the sentence my body is shaking. Lord give these families the peace of mind. I know it's hard but God can change many things.I will light candles for them all.
He has to pay all the fees before he can buy his own soap. She’s a real life gangster. That’s some thoughtful Ish right there
I hope he doesn't last 3 hours in prison. These legal loopholes allowed for him to scurry away with his life for now. I hope he gets his lifetimes full of torture & torment in this life and the next.
The judge did a great job of holding back her emotions. That’s what he wanted. He wants reaction. In the final words, someone outside of the prison system will ever say to him, he got nothing.
Wasn't the defendant supposed to stand to receive his full sentence in this open court?
God bless these children and their surviving families their statements were Earth moving. Forever in our hearts and minds.
Rest in Paradise sweet children ✨🕊️✨🌹✨💖
Honorable respect to these families. ✨🙏✨
He is chained to the floor or table
🙏😥
And so that’s it… It’s so weird! He could do such a heinous thing and live. No remorse. 😢
My heart goes out to all the families
The best was the Son of Sam law and the commissary withholding until all restitution and prosecution fees are paid which will not happen in his lifetime. He won't even be able to buy soap, shoes, Ramen or a can coke. He will only have what the Prison gives him and his meds.
Why should the victims family and the general public have to sponsor him by way of the taxes they pay that is inturn used to pay for prisoners up keep.
can they take 100% of it?
Damn the Judge looked like she had to compose and prepare herself to read all the counts.
This guy will have to fear for his life every day in jail. Now he'll get to see what his victims felt right before he shot them. That's justice!
My heart is broken for these families. Healing heart hugs of love and peace for all these families.
All these horrible crimes going on in this country today along with everything else is so sad,this country has turned its back against God,so this is part of what u get,the little bit of good that does happen in all of this darkness of evil is like a small shinning light ,I hope it never goes out,for with the evil there is goodness also,God is the answer to everything and without Him,we are nothing
This is very sobering to listen to..each name being said out loud is so heartbreaking. I feel like I know their families ♥️
May god bless this judge! I hope school districts across this great nation improve school security.
unfortunately as much as it happens in schools, it's not really a school problem. It has always been about gun laws. This could happen anywhere.
You did a fabulous Judge…thank you for your professional way…you have my respect….thank you♥️🌀
I don't know how Elizabeth read all those names out like that. I would have struggled. What a gem of a Judge she is.
He just thinks he got off easy. He won’t find any love where he is going.
Yes he will. He has got sick fangirls who write him letters every day since his mass murder
Yes he will hell get food, tv time,
Big bubba will him all the love he deserves.
@@bluntforcetrauma2141 he's gonna be in separate housing
Yes, due to his age and notoriety he will be segregated, but that won’t last forever. Peoples memories are long…he will get his due by a prisoner who doesn’t like his ego or attitude
I am a Canadian who has watched 90% of the available videos. I have been involved in law for 30 plus years. This defender team is atrocious. There is very little professionalism. I think the Judge handled herself very well. The antics shown by the most unprofessional defence team actually made me physically ill. They should all be barred from ever representing any client. Any Judge that could contain her anger and still administer justice is commendable! Not that the defenders didn’t try her patience in an attempt to railroad her into a mistrial. Is there any backbone in making people accountable?
Disbarment for all of them, a disgrace to the justice system of any country.
He shows NO REMORSE.
@@karl7361 nope. He is just evil
That’s my biggest issue Debra!!!!‼️
And how should he show the remorse exactly?
This is so so sad my deepest symptoms to the familys my heart hurt for your pain im sorry
May the families of their loved ones finally get closure now.
🙏 RIP ALL THAT PERISHED 🙏
Ich bete für die Familien. Kraft und Stärke für die Eltern. R.I.P.
Omg I’m so sorry for the families none of the kids or the families didn’t deserve this or to go through this 😢💔 very heart breaking
This is unbelievable. Defense won against state.The death penalty is exactly for these crimes. Wow. If I were one of the victim’s families I would never pay tax.
Yes imagine paying taxes and knowing it's been used to maintain your loved ones killer. Strange things happen in the name of rule of law.
These school shootings boggles my mind, I truly hope the US finds a solution for this epidemic.
Looking at those family members there in court is absolutely heartbreaking. Losing your loved one is such a life changing extremely sad experience, I struggle with it. It never truly gets better, you just get used to it and I can't even imagine how one accepts your child's death in such a manner? Having to endure this circus and seeing that monster everyday must be so traumatising all over again.
I wish the families and friends only the best and may they find peace, great for those who can forgive this monster, they are better people than I am because I doubt I could forgive action's like this! 💝💝💝💝💝
They need to stop publicizing school shooters for starters..all they want is notoriety..
That poor woman getting toungetied. I know I’d forget words too with how much she had to say
@9:19 the sigh of relief coming from the defense attorney sitting next to him was saying “Well that’s all 34 counts of murder/attempted murder…we did it. We saved this mass murderer from death penalty”… I’m curious how does he sleep at night?
Are you retarded? That's literally his job. How to are you going to have a defense attorney advocating for the maximum punishment under the law?
The same way you can sleep if your client gets the death penalty.
Actually the sigh might not have been one of relief.
This is shocking.....so sad for the parents and families....
Ahhhhh, there will be NO SOUPS FOR YOU CRUZ!! No soups, soaps, clothes.....nothing.
This young man split himself of from the reality of life a long time ago. Incredible sadness.
This monster deserves no sadness. Unless you are out of your mind you know right from wrong. He knew. 😢
No emotion....sad...evil filled
It is sad but he chosen this path
Now...would love to see all affected family members to stand in unison and flip the bird back to the defendent/attorneys.
Why this man needs a TEAM of lawyers is beyond me...
Ill behaved layers just like him
So 3 people actually think that he should just rot in jail…maybe they’re related to him or friends with his relatives 🤷🏾♀️
Judge is awesome and did amazing job. Great job.
It's up to the prisoners of FSP to save the tax payers a lot of money now.
It is sickening to know that he wont suffer in prison, he will live a pretty good life in prison. He will 3 hot meals, a bed, go to the gym, play basketball or soccer, read books, play on his tablet and get a full blown college education, something his victims were robbed of, all on the tax payer dime instead of frying like he deserve. He will live better than most people and veterans who actually fought for this country and are rewarded with mental illness and homelessness
No justice was served today. I hope the one juror has nightmares for the rest of their lives.
You really are drunk because he will be raped torched from his butt hole and
He will not be able to enjoy his food vecthe inmates will take it and didn't you hear the judge say they will take all of his commissary
Money 💰 and the food in the prison ism great and the beds as re not comfortable!
He will find God in prison they always do .
@@patriciakeith6164 there is no god
No the prisoners will get to him!!!
Isolation vs. prison justice…. He’ll suffer
Just heartbreaking.. to get justice but no relief from the pain & emptiness
Very sorry for these families. Hope the killer goes thru hell while in prison.
Never having access to commissary is a good punishment. Prison food is tasteless, that’s all he will get to eat for the rest of his life. There’s no way he will ever be able to pay those fines and restitutions
Watching from the UK. We need more judges like her over here
I would embrace each broken devastated family member telling them each to live to breathe to mourn to rejoice to cry to smile 🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
He seemed most upset about his loss of commissary...
Those 2 jurors that wouldn’t vote death penalty should disappear mysteriously. Seriously and not Bc they want to either. Pathetic jurors. They’re both POS.
No life in prison will be better. Death is honestly too easy and good for him.
You are as sick as him
It's a slap in the face to tax payers to feed and house and be given medical attention to this guy for the rest of his life.
We do it anyways when they get the death penalty. A lot of times it takes decades to execute or they die before execution.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Mercy Jesus family give them comfort/ peace strength
i pray for all those families
I don't think he realizes what is coming down to him
Convicts don't obey the law so there's some cruel and unusual punishment in his future.
My Heart breaks for these familys !
Set him free and let every family member get a shot at him and make him pay the ultimate penalty for what he did... Justice was not served here....
Also, the defense team call their offices and let them know how you feel for their immature and petty attitude toward this trial...
Find out also who the jurors are that voted against the death penalty... Let them know
Healing for the families y'all love ones is looking down all of this
its just so shocking that the jury was so ignorant
I will forever remember the names of the victims and hold them up here in WA state. I too will light a candle every valentines day for the victims. I pray the murderer is tortured every day in prison.
for the wreckless murder of so many innocent people, jail house justice is going to ramp up a whole new gear. It will be done by someone already serving a "life sentence" and tack on a couple more. I hope it is painful as hell.
The judge is so inspirational....😊😊😊
Incredible judge.
Yeah she's hot, I swear I've seen her on another RUclips video though. You don't forget a judge with a face like that
This judge needs and deserves a long vacation 🙏🏽💐❤️🔥ps- don't demean animals by equating this evil beast with innocent animals. There's more love in an animal than in this ...thing
God bless each family
Lol, he gets credit for 1700 days in jail.
People here blaming the judge for giving him Life Sentences instead of Death Penalty have no idea how the judicial system works...
When it comes to Life sentences vs Death Penalty; It's the juror which decides Nicks fate, not the judge; IF JUST 1 JURY MEMBER disagreed with the death penalty, then it immediately turns into a life sentence. The judge only voices what the jury decides.
There's nothing else she could do more than impose additional jail restrictions; And that's exactly what she did.
Just watching his eyes light up when the counts were given to him. The expression on his face, so calm, insidious and with no remorse. He will never last even if they gave him the death penalty, judgment is already waiting for him.
She wanted to drain his inheritance he got from his mother. So she sentences he can't get commissary it will be garnished and can't benefit monetarily. Good call there Judge!
I’m so glad they made it so he can never make money off what he did, he can not have any commissary u til everything is paid off! U can tell the judge isn’t happy with the verdict either!
May he only ever come out of the prison building in a body suite.
You mean a body bag.
@@patriciakeith6164 lol yes bodysuit (like what lady Gaga wears on stage) would be a strange way to leave a prison. I meant body bag
Could not the judge take the juror's verdict into consideration and still impose the death penalty? I know states are different. Anyone know?
Spending this much time and money on this case, all taxpayer money, is ridiculous. 30 days after arrest, one cartridge, any calibre behind the ear and it is all over...
He get to meet the brother, study, walk, talk, lawyer, 3 meals, air to breath , gets the best lawyer and he sit and enjoys what he planned so well while the other victim are in their cold grave and parents have to suffer.
the souls of the children should rest in peace knowing he can not ever reach them. This monster will get what's coming to him.
Anyone, who murders, i don't care how many people, should have the death penalty. Why should they live? This is ridiculous. But this judge is absolutely patient... I'll give her that...
The judge hurt every time she had to not give what the families wanted.
I'm a cry baby all the time , and I being cried and cried since the beginning of this trail, my heart goes to every family member and I'm don't know them personally but I feel like I do, because I being followed this case, and I'm glad the he will be rawring in prison like a animal that he is Great job for the Juged and the lawyers the representative the families.
Should have been DP
Now we are punishing taxpayers instead of the actual Criminal .
He will cost millions in taxpayer money.
Hopefully he gets to gen pop
